As is fit for this thread topic, I think that I use the term Butterfly lighting in the most "Ghetto" way possible. The idea is that your main(key) light is directly in front of your subject, above your camera. This creates a "flattering" shadow below the face, in line with the nose. You can also fill in this shadow with a reflector or another light, which I did. Can't wait to see how your shots come out!
